Global Place Somali Restaurant

Yelp says they're open till 8pm but Google Maps says 6:30pm. Either way they're already out of food by 6. So it must be good, lol. Will update if I ever get to try it.

Update: Unfortunately I finally got to try it and it's the worst African food I've had in SLC and the second worst African food I've had in the United States.

I love African food. But I've never had Somali food, or any African food, like this, and not in a good way. No variety in flavor, no balance, everything is just sweet: the bread, the pasta, the meat...

Plus I found not 1 but 2 human hairs in the food, not my color or texture so definitely not mine, and deeply buried enough that they definitely were introduced before I opened the container, so again, can't be my own. I ended up throwing most of my meal away.

I'd give it a 1 but I can't bring myself to rate an African restaurant less than a 2. Take note that this is a 2 with an asterisk.

Do yourself a favor and go to Somali Restaurant (Nutrition & Ethnic foods) or Midnimo, or even Noor in the same parking lot if you have the time to wait. Even Horn of Africa, who is out of most of their menu for the foreseeable future, is a better option.

Or expand your horizons to Swahili, Ethiopian, or even Afghani or Peruvian food, which share some similarities and have restaurants nearby. I enjoyed Mahider.
